I agree that differences of opinion arise. I also respect that for without honest open debate no issue can be resolved. I will be the first one to defend the rights of others to disagree with my views for that is what this nation was built on. I will also defend the rights of peaceful anti war protest for it is a right and one that should never be taken away. But I will also be in the middle of the counter demonstration.

Well said, well respected.

Guage, I only wish I had thought to say that too.

The majority of the people in Iraq are thankful for what our military has done and they do want freedom and democracy.

No asshole can make that claim here, that these people are downtrodden and beg help.

Based upon my experience overseas, the majority resent our being there. From my view, the liberal American press struggles to find positive 'good news' stories to feed the public.

Yes, Iraqis want to enjoy freedom, but not after nearly 40,000 of their citizens have been killed, far more than Hussein ever killed. We don't realize this, but before the invasion, Baghad was one of the most progressive and Westernized cities in the Middle East. Hussein was a vile man, but he nothing compared to some other leaders, particularly Kim Jon Il.

Thought: It always struck me as ironic that whilst North Korea and Iran openly bragged about their nuclear weapons programs, we invaded the one country that denied having weapons.

I was always told to not believe what you can't see and only have of what you do. So, invading the country that denied having nuclear weapons was probably a good thing, but we have wore out our welcome. The countries that said they have nuclear weapons, who's to say that when push comes to shove they won't be our side anyway? We only know what the government wants us to know. So, how do we know that they aren't really on our side and we just don't know it until we need to know it? There is a concept called "Need to Know Basis Only".

The War on terror is something our country and we as citizens have to win. I don't know why the rest of the world thought that we were the land of Milk & Honey. We learned in Vietnam that America is capable of crulity. So nothing that goes on there is a shock or big deal to me.The enemy is a civilization based on religious laws of sexual uptightness and is 1000 times worse that ours that is why we will win.

the problem is, as poorly as this has been handle ( good that you remember Viet Nam) we (America) won't win this battle, since there's no way to win.

Not to mention that we abdicated the moral high ground.

Would you mind stating, in objective terms, how we will know when you think we will have "won?"
